Imagine sitting on a cuck couch, across from some random stranger, paying them a shit ton of money to talk about your problems. Then instead of helping you work through your problems, the stranger just looks at you and jots down some shit on their notepad. And when you ask them how you can solve your problems, the stranger across from you just answers your questions with another question: "How do you think you can solve your problems?"

Then they just watch you cry like a fag and write you up prescriptions for SSRI's which will destroy your libido and turn you trans. Then you keep coming back week after week, paying them for this shit, while deluding yourself that this is helping.

Therapy is such a fucking scam bro. I can't believe there are millions of people out there who fall for that shit. It's such a chick thing to do.

Yes quite. I did have one good therapist, but I feared growing inappropriately attached to her (not merely as in attraction but just the need for her presence and help) that I shut her out and quit.

there is therapist and there is psychiatrist.

You go to a therapist to complain to like a freind
A psychiatrist has actually studied and will help you understand your self and your problems.

That's a load of shit. You're lucky to even see a psychiatrist maybe once every month or two. Then they just slap you on whatever meds thrj you wait. Oh they aren't working less just up the dose or just try another.

Studied my ass they don't have any fucking clue just like the therapists.

I go to a therapist and it's fixed a lot for my anxiety
>once every month or two
i go once a week
>slap whatever meds that you want
Some, i guess. Mine never asked me if i wanted meds but if i asked she would probably give them to me.

We are talking psychiatry here but therapy is a loaf of horse shit to me. Bit I guess if all you have if just nonsense anxiety and depression sure I guess these worthless people can help but God if you need any real help these fucks can't do shit

>>81609471
no i agree that if you are too far gone mentally there's nothing to do. It's most likely they'll die still fucked up rather than ever recover

Psychoanalysis is based, it's like astrology for me

Couldn't be me. I always instinctively knew it was a scam. It became much more clear as I got older and learned more about it, especially the fact that all pharmaceutical drugs are toxic. It's horrible how they will rob you of your (already limited) autonomy if you talk about anything illegal or remotely suicidal or homicidal or what have you. No matter what angle you look at it from, it's obvious that it's all useless and even harmful. These "people", as well as the rest of the medical industry, are the most evil entities in the history of the world. They have caused more suffering than anyone before them

humans were not made to sit at a desk for 10 hours to make the rich richer, of course we're all turning insane, psychology/psychiatry is just another tool created by the capitalists to keep people in check
>what do you mean you dont want to be a worker drone for bezos n co
>why dont you take these pills and go on a little forced vacation anon :)
this is the true benefit they get from the scam that is therapy, the money is a nice bonus

>>81609682
it's nice that even though 4chan changes with the wiping of the millenials, the capitalist conspyracist are always here

Psychotherapy needs to be banned and criminalized, for financially exploiting unhappy and mentally disordered people.

The only good that ever came out of a therapist for me was when I told a therapist I spent three nights a week drunk and did 30 standard drinks a week and he told my parents who paid for the therapy. I got so pissed at him for that and never saw him again, but felt so bad that it helped me change my ways and drink less. Maybe therapists can help I dunno

I've been going to therapy. The therapist can't do much to change my perspective because I am right to be depressed about my current situation. It truly is a depressing situation.

So why do I go? WFH. As long as I am in therapy, my psychologist will continue to write medical notes that allow me to WFH.

best therapy is improving yourself, smoking weed and learn to stop caring about others

What do you expect from someone who can only spend an hour a day because you're only willing to spend $100?

A therapist can't hold your hand through life. To equate the fact that they cannot fix your life for you to them not having value is a dense take.
